Sri Lankan Cricket Team had a decent start to their power-play overs after electing to bat first. The visitors managed to score 51 runs for the loss of 1 wicket. The Lankan batters played out the veteran speedster Mohammed Shami in the initial stages of the match.
The island nation had a dramatic collapse as lost 6 wickets for 50 runs as the visitors were reduced to 152-7. The wrecker-in-chief was Kuldeep Yadav who took 3 key wickets of Kusal Mendis, Charith Asalanka & the skipper Dasun Shanaka where Kuldeep was bowling quite a wicket to wicket.

Great chance for India
The Men in Blue need to quickly wrap up the innings as Chamika Karunaratne can inflict quite some damage. The way Rohit Sharma has rotated the bowlers is quite commendable as he never allowed the batters to settle down and at the same time, the skipper set attacking field placements.
Sri Lanka would be crestfallen as earlier they were aiming for a target around 300 and now they would be hoping that the team doesn’t get bundled out inside 50 overs. It won’t be wrong to say that the batters weren’t prepared for the Kuldeep Yadav challenge where they looked completely clueless against his variations.
